Can anyone guess ways to continue to be successful with Brees?

I think the story of the playoffs ending the way it did is/was injuries. Maybe if Thomas wasn't injured basically 90% of the season, and maybe if Drew didn't get injured (twice apparently), or Murray was able to play, and maybe if Taysom was able to play vs Tampa he makes a first down here and there that they failed to convert, and maybe if Harris didn't get injured early on etc. The game very well could have turned out differently but you can only play the hand you are dealt.

I think it is apparent, especially after Drew getting injured these past two seasons, SP built a team to win and make it to the playoffs. But this year (for once) the refs didn't screw the team, it was the injury bug that did them in.
